Amazing
I bought this karcher to supplement my valor 160 to use as a more portable device for quick cleaning jobs! All I can say is What an amazing little machine! Lightweight and more than powerful enough for every day cleaning jobs! I now find I hardly ever use the more powerful valor!
Not bat at all!
A nice compact version of the k3.
Received this pressure washer today and first impressions are nothing short of excellent.
This pressure washer came nicely boxed and because this is a compact version, the cardboard box wasn’t big at all so it makes the process of discarding the cardboard nice and easy.
Upon opening the box, the instructions and warranty information are what greeted me first. If I register this pressure washer, Karcher themselves will protect me for general component failure for 24 months which is reassuring and nice to have. The instructions are a little vague. I find the instructions, especially the photos a little confusing. However, I personally had no issues with this pressure washer due to having previous experience with other Karcher pressure washes so the instructions were not needed for myself.
The power cable supplied (5m) was more than enough for myself. I love the feature of storing the power cable at the bottom of the pressure washer. It makes it so easy to transport. The hose length I did not measure but, it looks like a pretty standard hose length for a pressure washer. The hose itself comes coiled up for packaging purposes so, on my first use I spent a few minutes making sure the hose was extended fully without kinks to prolong the life of the hose but it feels nice and strong.
In my photos you can see where the hose connects on both the pressure washer and the gun. Both the yellow and grey clips operate the same at each end. I personally know these clips have been designed for a long time now and I think an update would be nice. They are intended to be squeezed to release the clips to attach the hose however, I found I had to pull the clips off using the lip. I do not intend of removing the hose after every use so I personally haven’t got an issue but if I wanted to remove the hose after every use, I would probably order some spare clips just incase.
In the box is a black tap connector. This just simply screws on underneath where the grey C clip connector is. My hose then just clipped on like most other water garden tools and accessories without any issues or signs of a water leak. I have found no water leaks as of yet.
Before I connected my pressure washer to power and turned it on, I connected the water and activated the trigger gun. I did this to release any air locks that may be in the system prior to use before power is introduced which will help the motor last much longer. I operate the gun until a nice flow of water without any spitting is all that remains.
This is my first pressure washer without wheels. What did I think? LOADS better. I’ve always been a big believer in having wheels will make it easier. It really doesn’t. In my experience, all that happens is once the garden hose, power cable or pressure lance reaches its limits, the pressure washer fell over. NOT WITH THIS ONE. Because the pressure washer is designed to sit on the floor in one position, if the cable or a hose is at its limit, that’s it. You don’t move. You resolve the problem, without damaging anything. I think this version of a pressure washer is so much easier to work with. Yes, you might have to spend slightly more time moving it into a better position but, I would choose this any day of the week instead of risking damaging an expensive pressure washer. The handle feels very strong and long lasting and I personally have no issue with the weight of this pressure washer.
I previously had a k2 and I can confirm this pressure washer is the tiniest bit better at removing dirt so it does make jobs slightly easier but that was to be expected with having a slightly bigger motor than the k2.
I’ve used this pressure washer to clean my conservatory, slabs, brick wall & my car. It has been more than powerful enough to tackle every single job.
I have not used the included suction hose so I cannot comment on this part however, I personally like to use a separate attachment bottle if I want to use cleaning detergents to make my jobs easier at lifting stubborn dirt.
For the price I paid, I think it was very fair and competitive.
It’s a 10/10 from me folks!
Great Little Pressure Washe
I put this pressure washer on my Amazon Shopping List and noticed 2 price drops in 1 week, so bought it (89.99) ! Purchased through Karchers Amazon store to use as a car detailing station on a fixed shelf in the garage connected to a hose reel. 1600 watt, 120 Bar , 380 L/hr output and very compact, ideal for car washing. I discarded the Karcher hose but put the gun, vario lance and dirt blaster nozzles to one side as they work really well. The Item well packaged was delivered quickly, no complaints and very happy with the purchase. Only time will tell on the durability, but I remain optimistic based on my other Karcher purchases.
Trusted brand
Good value, my last Karcher lasted 20 years , still working but leaking so bought this similar model. keeps falling over when I am moving around as it is top heavy. The next model up with wheels might be more stable but then it is more expensive!
Good product but cost-cutting spoils i
It’s powerful as expected though let’s be honest, there not exactly packed with tech, pretty simple devices. You’d think a brand with this reputation they’d concentrate on making their product better quality, easier to use?
My only two gripes are where the high pressure hose joins the main unit and the lance, they use these little plastic c-clips instead of a quick relese system. I think the idea is you “simply” squeeze and pull the clip to remover the hose. Well, I buggered if I can do it, I have to resort to using a screwdriver to pull the c-clip off. This c-clip is small & flimsy, pathetic little thing and I’d put money on the fact one will break before too long. OK, replacements are cheap but that’s not the point.
The other thing is the high pressure hose doesn’t uncoil properley & lay flat, it’s too stiff. very annoying. grrrrrr.
My outgoing models was a K2 and it lasted me over 10 yearsgreat little thing. I bought this one because it was a K3 and really compact for easy storage. I have to say it works great and is really powerful I can’t be the power for something so small. However I was using it for about an hour and the whole time it had a funny smell. I’m thinking it maybe the new plastic smell but it does make me nervous as that’s how my old one went..smell, smoke and then gone. highly recommend this one tho!
Brilliant produc
This small machine made light work of three paved patios and a large deck area.Am delighted with this purchase. Couldn’t buy it cheaper anywhere else. A bargain.and lightweight too. Which is a bonus. I fully recommend this karcher pressure washer . The deck and paved areas look fabulous.
Assembles so easily, I didn’t need the ‘Instructions’! So Obvious what fits where immediately, Used it once after purchase, to test/check. I was amazed at its powerful jets (variable, with the nozzle). Bought to wash my new WHITE car (haha). This machine is suitable for general ‘blast-cleaning’ too, so I got a machine for many uses. It’s noise-level doesn’t sound huge, like some other small makes. Can’t imagine my neighbours complaining. ALL washers CAN sound loud on a ‘quiet Sunday’, when many folk wash their car. A brilliant purchase, with very solidly produced tools. One ‘star’ deducted from the hose flexibility, simply because like all washers I’ve had in the past, the hoses are always very firm and ‘curl’ somewhat, they need to be firm, they carry a lot of pressure. Davide. ps. Water supply from an outdoor tap, and hose just ‘snaps’ on the inlet of the machine, with an ordinary ‘garden-gun’ universal fitting.
